don't get me wrong i meant no disrespect, and yes he has mentioned that he does graphic design, i guess i could have worded it better, but what i meant was that PER theme he spend what seems to me about an hoour or so changing stuff in framework-res.apk. i like his themes sometimes, but i prefer a fully loaded theme. i don't paricularly have a fav dev for themes(besides myself) and i try to download as many as i can to change on the fly. i did not mean that he spent very little time on themes, beacause i know he works hard and his themes are made for himself and he chooses to share. i personally try to come up with something others will enjoy, when trying to decide what to make i take in to account what is popular at the time and hope that people enjoy it. i take prode in making others happy, i enjoy making something that someone else wants to put on their phone
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] Beast84:
Wasn't he the one who was answering everyones theme requests from the theme request thread? Granted, his themes weren't fully loaded but he's only one man trying to make an entire thread happy. He started that thread & took it upon himself to make it happen it seems. Sure others joined in but he was ****ting out themes left & right to make people happy. Someone asked for a theme, later that day they had it. Hows that for customer satisfaction??
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] tubaking182:
as i already stated i meant no disrespect to Randum and i do hope that he comes back, i was merely voicing my opinion just as several others have done. i am not gonna fight about this. i like randum, he works hard to satify lots of people but he was not the only person taking requests from that thread and making personalized themes for people. i have made a few themes, none of which compare to randum, manup, stericson, or any of the others(sorry i forget everyone's names). but i am proud of my themes, i like to try new things all the time and i learn new things daily thanks to this site. most of what i learned to change in a theme i learned by taking the templates that stericson so kindly provided as well as a few well made themes. i do take requests from peoplr for themes as well, and though i might not be as efficiant as randum i try to make sure that everything is just right for the person it is for.

most people have an idea of what they want their phone to look like but lack the knowhow to make it themselves. i know my first theme did not come out as pretty as i had envisioned but i was satified with it in the end. this is the final word i will have on the manner
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] LatinSilEighty:
@Randum Dont go bro lol. Simple or not your themes were hawt . both because they were art and also because, everytime i can remember someone asking you to do a theme you did it no if and's or but's bro.(asked for gears of war theme and got it in like a day or two)

@manup I totally understand that you didnt want anyone hacking up your themes because you put lots of time into your themes but this thread was kinda gone about in the wrong way.In a way you didn't specify any other time that you didn't want your themes chopped and screwed until this post. All this could of just been fixed by just saying "please wait for me to update my themes for the new builds"

@MOON your the man your themes rock love your themes and your openness in all this mess.

@everyone else yes i know, i know i haven't made ish and i may not have a place really saying anything about this but i love everyone's themes and i think that everyone that is a themer or just a person that changes up icons on an already existing theme is talented and artist in their own way.

All you guys put your themes up here to give them to people to put on their phones, and to feel a little bit better both when someone congratulates you and when you find out that someone is actually rocking the hell out of your theme.

So...I think that everyone should just squash this and move on, because im sure if this keeps on there aren't going to be many themers left in the end. you guys are kinda sh!ting on xda for making this a bigger issue than it really is.

[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] jmon777:
Ok this thread is dumb!!! On both sideds u don't want peps messing with a thread say so. If post a ported theme give credit. The end... this is bickering is slowing down themeing... which does not need any help do to the fact we are dealing with 3 roms right now. I think deves would be gald for the help... you know I think there's going to be a need for porters soon. exsample some makes a a theme for jf but 1/3 doing dudes and no one can port it then that is going to make pepole mad.

Faith love and happiness :) :) :)
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] lad1337:
ok

i guess i should say something too since i made porting a little easier ...

i ported nearly ever theme i could find and used them for my phone ...

and i posted 4 different ones...

even one from manup ... i will take that one out !

i made absolutely clear that i am not the dev(creator) of the theme and no one complaint

one dev asked me if i could port it and give it to him so he could post it ... that was perfect

still my port wasn't ^^

now what should i do ... i guess i will stop post converted themes .. and only update the script

so anyone could foul around and do it for them selfs...or post it ... !?

this discussion will not stop me from publishing the script!!

well ... cu lad

ps still i think you devs shouldn't be angry / sad or anything like that ... ok if they give you no credit ... shame on them but that is opensource... be happy for what you achieved and that it makes others happy ... and/or make a note in the zip file ,like i did(i know the text can be misinterpreted .. will be changed), or in every app !
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] AGx-07_162:
It seems a bit hypocritical to me to develop anything for whats supposed to be an "open source" platform, where the belief is that we should be able to do anything we want with what's in our possession once its in our possession. Like with the phone I dont think its anyone's buisness if I want to overclock or theme it. That hurts no one and similarly I dont think its any of the dev's buisness whether or not the users alter our themes for their pleasure. I am against anyone releasing work that isn't theirs and claiming it is. That I agree is wrong but if the users want to chop up themes however, I think it should be in their right to do so. You released it for them to enjoy, now let them enjoy it.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] big nu:
I agree w/ you 100% once its in there possession its their do whatever they please, it only becomes an issue when its distributed-"hince this thread was taken way out of context" AND AGAIN THATS MY OPINION. REMEMBER, OPINIONS ARE LIKE BUTTHOLES, EVERYBODIES GOT ONE! and ive ran into my fair share of opinions i did not agree w/ and never once did i put that person ON BLAST!!!

Re: No restrictions apply to works in the public domain. They may be freely modified.

Do you have your artwork copyrighted? Names trademarked? Because unless you do.. It is considered Public Domain once you upload it to the internet. And we are the Public, and this is our Domain.

You may "ask" others not to port/edit/rename your work. You may even "ask" others to include credit to you if they do port your work, but in the end, all you can do is "ask".

That is all there is to it. It's just that simple. If you are well respected and approach the issue correctly people will be likely to respect your wishes, but when you sick your little 'pu' on the forum demanding that people stop porting your themes (even before anyone has ported one) you will not get you the respect you need to accomplish what you want to.

This is what I wanted to say. I couldn't have worded it better.

Mhmmmmmmmmmmm. This is also what i was thinking in conjunction with and open source dev. platform.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] beagz:
Well this is kind of dissapointing to me. I ported prodigal sun going file by file to make sure it was a perfect match (if I missed any piece it is minor) I only added the IMO better music and calendar widgets and used the old clock and app handle. I took hours to do this properly so that it wouldn't be a "hack" job to honor such a nice theme without diminishing it. I ported it to Dude's .94 the same night it was released only to find I couldn't share my contribution. I am still going to do moondust the same way. If manup wants to inspect my port I will gladly send it for approval. I also have what amounts to a template for .94 if I can post it with Dude's permission. I really hope this dies without any more pain.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] beagz:
P.S. If any theme dev gives permission I will gladly port any theme to Dudes .94

I am running the new 64-bit,:( Release Candidate of Windows 7. Despite booting to allow unsigned drivers (F8 on boot-time), Windows 7 still rejects the USPL driver. I did browse to the USPL GUI driver for 64 bit. Worked fine on previous Windows 7 beta.

Anyone else have trouble?

Since it's actually a command line application, I don't think the compatibility feature is available...will try when get home from work.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m.klinge:
Hiya android forums :)

Im getting myself a ADP - just waiting for it to arrive and now it has made up a few questions in my mind - please dont bash the hell out of me if they have been asked before :)

First off, im not completly new to all this flashing, SPL etc, I would say i know the basic of flashing a WiMo...

So it kinda the same when you want to flash a "custom rom" to the G1, you need the first flash a custom SPL?

If thats true is it also true that the ADP have some sort of open SPL wich would allow any rom to be flashed, custom or not (Even WiMo)?

What are the downside of having a ADP rather than a T-mobile - besides the "small" problem with paid programs at market?

More questions prolly arises in the near future, but if anybody would be able answer thise Id be really glad :)

//M
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jashsu:
So it kinda the same when you want to flash a "custom rom" to the G1, you need the first flash a custom SPL?

On Android there are two ways generally to flash a device: through the recovery (which checks against some Android crypto keys) and through the spl (either through htc-signed nbh or fastboot). Since you are getting an ADP, the device has the test-keys which mean you can flash whatever you want using the first method.

If thats true is it also true that the ADP have some sort of open SPL wich would allow any rom to be flashed, custom or not (Even WiMo)?

Yes, it is also referred to as the engineering bootloader (not technically the correct name, but close enough). It allows direct flashing of the entire flash from the spl using fastboot. You could not flash a winmo rom, since the fastboot protocol, afaik, does not allow changing the existing partitions in the onboard flash.

What are the downside of having a ADP rather than a T-mobile - besides the "small" problem with paid programs at market?

You can also modify the system software to show paid programs. That is no longer an issue. In fact if you flashed a T-Mo firmware, for all intents and purposes it would be identical to a G1. Only downside, I suppose, is you have to pay $400.

Go read the stickied posts in the dream developers forum

. They will answer the questions you have.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dwang:
The downside to using adp images vs tmobile images is you lose some of the tmobiles specific applications. Currently they are myfaves, amazon mp3 store, and the IM app.

The current JF ADP 1.5 image, as well as the other cupcake images, do allow "protected" apps, so the marketplace restrictions aren't an issue anymore with ADP images if you flash one of the custom builds.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m.klinge:
Thanks for your answers :)

Ive now read a whole lot of the stickies in the development section - however i still have kinda few questions :)

So now that its an ADP and therefore have the engineering bootloader i dont need to flash a custom SPL - however both on the wiki and in the stickies the custom one are still recommended, is that only when youre on a "normal" g1 or what are the reason for me to flash a custom SPL rather than stick with the engineering?

As far as i recall from my WiMo days it wasnt too easy (Not to mention safe) to do a flash back to the orginal SPL once you have flashed a HardSPL - is that also the situation for "the common guy"?

How does flashing a custom SPL affect the warrenty?

//M
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jashsu:
The "HardSPL" for G1 doesn't work the same as for winmo. In the winmo world. HardSPL prevents other programs from normally writing to the SPL. Rewriting SPL would have to be done with a backdoor. In G1, the capability to restrict writing the SPL hasn't been implemented yet. The only difference between HardSPL and the Engineering SPL is the former is capable of accepting DREAIMG.NBH from all regions, as it spoofs a supercid.

Once one's SPL can perform fastboot nand flashing (which Engineering SPL can do) then there isn't much else that needs to be done.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m.klinge:
Ahh thx for clearing that out for me :)

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m.klinge:
Ok so now ive recived my phone (Bought it from somebody else) :)

Right now i want to make sure its the official rom - what do i need to look for? The info are as following:

Baseband: 62.50s.20.17h_2.22.19.26i

Kernel: 2.6.27-00392-g831baf android-build@apa27 #72

Build number: dream_devphone-userdebug 1.5 crb21147201 test-keys

//M
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kallisti5:
That is the latest ADP1 firmware / baseband from HTC ( i just verified the version strings to the ones on my ADP1). You are good to go for now.

http://www.htc.com/www/support/android/adp.html

One modification to do is to A2SD (apps to sd). Doing an A2SD mod puts installed applications on the sd card giving you more space and fewer writes to your adp1's precious internal flash chips.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m.klinge:
Ahh that sounds great - thx for your reply :)

So what would i gain by using one of the custom roms? Anything that i cant do with this by simply install apps?

//M
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kallisti5:
Currently I see very little to gain from the custom roms on the ADP1, I installed one of those custom roms to get closer to 1.5 before 1.5 was final and the custom rom seemed buggy and slower. The custom rom I used also defaulted to Chinese once installed :( that was tough to fix.

One Positive thing about custom roms though is that there is a custom ROM floating around that enables multi-touch. Android currently supports multi-touch but Google has disabled it in the source code (patent issues with Apple).

Since the ADP1 has the open boot loader, feel free to play around with custom images. The chances of bricking the ADP1 are much less ( as long as you are careful and flash things properly)

I did the update from the ADP Holiday 1.1 version to the ADP 1.5 version and several things didnt work at all. I wiped the phone and haven't had any issues since..

you can't flash a g3 with g4 upgrader. the program don't allow you to do this..

if your spl / ip is like x.xx.0001 is a g4 if is x.xx.0000 is a g3

you can instal a g3 update on bootloader (the 3 colors screen)

just connect to usb port and start the program/try with novendor update. ( the program not the ms dos)
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading] noonas:
So in Tri-color screen it says the following:

IPL 2.10

SPL 2.20.0001, this should make it a G4 chip then.

On to do the NVID update now...:)

Ok downloaded the Upgrade_HardSPL_G4 tool and ran it.

It went rather quickly and ended in a completely green screen

att he top it says:

IPL 2.10

SPL 2.20.0001

:confused:

Will do some more attempts.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading] noonas:
So I downloaded Prophet Shadow 2.0 rom and ran the G4 upgrade RUU.

During the flashing progress the Bar on the Phone whent RED a couple of times, it eventually went to 100% (being red for about a minute), once the flash completed the phone rebooted in to the sam old tri-color screen again,.

What do to now??:confused:
